The vegan diet is a great choice for eye health. And here is another eye health tip for you! A study reported that the blue light emitted from mobile devices including phones can accelerate night blindness since it can result in macular degeneration. This occurs when photoreceptor cells in the macular, or the center of the retina, die due to excess blue light. You can avoid blue light by limiting the use of mobiles and tablets in the dark and taking regular screen breaks. Consider utilizing blue light filters. Sunglasses can also be used to protect your eyes since they can filter blue light in addition to UV rays. Be sure to get an eye exam at least once a year to look for any health issues that might otherwise go undetected. Note also that a diet rich in leafy greens, bright oranges and yellows, and deep reds provide nutrients such as lutein and zeaxanthin, which are important for retinal cell health, so double down on an organic vegan diet for your vision!
